I have just tried installing it in the hope of getting rid of Outlook but cannot get it to run. It comes up with an error which I do not understand. The help on the error is here

What does "Your system configuration does not match your Evolution configuration" mean?

This means that the system configuration is not what it should be for the application to run well. To fix this, 1) evolution --force-shutdown 2) pkill evolution 3) export BONOBO_ACTIVATION_PATH=<your-build-prefix>/lib/bonobo/servers 4) run evolution again.

That is the one but really all I want to do is to find a way of transferring my Outlook 98 calendar so that I can use it in Linux. I do have an old Palm and thought I could do it that way but have been searching the net and nothing I found works.

Have done some more hunting around and found that I can export Outlook to Yahoo calendar. From there you can import back into Palm desktop. Bit of a circuitous route but it works. Now I have to find a way to get it into Linux and find a suitable app. Didn't really like the look of Evolution. KDE Kontact is the only other I know of.
